You probably should have add some music, and some sound effect, that will have add more life to the game.\nI really like the graphics, it's simple, but it works.\nFor the game itself, you should have probably embrace the random by making the food\/fuel given by the village random. (And not just add some plunderer). Because, in the best case scenario you have there, is you have a line of village from one side to the other, and you lose only 20 food to go to the next layer. So, not being able to make sure that you have 0 loss, or that you have more food than when arriving isn't rewarding enough, in my opinion.\n\nEither way, I love the game concept, and you probably should try to improve the game outside of the gamejam. <3","format":"md","likes":2,"spam":"N"},{"id":623769,"author_name":"Nela Flosova","author_uid":"nela-flosova","epoch":1619426182,"text":"Wonderful idea!

I sort of like that it seems you're doomed from the start. You probably could have worked on adding a bit more randomization into the game, a improvement in my mind would be to add more types of square with different rewards or even penalties.

Nice one! Interesting idea. I played a few times but wasn't sure if it will ever end. Nice presentation as well :)\n\nOther improvements:\n* Tiles need to be highlighted as you hover over them, otherwise it is hard to understand that you can click them\n* Confirmation should be to click the same tile\/location twice. The button creates too much cumbersome mouse movement.\n* There is no sound :(\n* No sense of progression - will it ever end?\n* Fire and Smoke are very expensive, it does not run very well on my PC (R380X, 1440p) but fortunately performance is not needed to play.\n* Try to reduce package size as there are not many assets and 140 Megs are quite a bit for that.

The lack of sound really hurts here, since a game with a slower pace as this really uses the soundscape to set the mood. The filesize was super large, so there is probably something going on there. There was some progression since there was the \"Layers left\" text, but it wasn't that noticeable and you didn't notice the progression in the actual gameplay. The game over transition was pretty abrupt, and it didn't tell you why you lost: whether it was the fire catching up or running out of one of the two resources.\n\nOverall, a cool little idea, looking really forward to what you can do in the next jam.","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":697810,"author_name":"Yaroslav Kravtsov","author_uid":"yaroslav-kravtsov","epoch":1620483953,"text":"I like the narrative of the last layers \u2764","format":"md","likes":0,"spam":"N"}],"format":"md","images":["ld48\/wayback-placeholder.png"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/github.com\/DShamaev\/LD48-LayeredWorld","text":"Github"},{"url":"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/1UTEFdWiMggpBcw8rSnUfRuTaR99W4xx-\/view?usp=sharing","text":"v0.9"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"77515","g_author":"1002975","g_event":"LD48","g_eventkey":"109","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"373931","g_title":"Layered World","g_status":"WAYBACK","g_place":"742","g_commentcount":"17","g_site2_node_id":"249145","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":{"n_key":"249145","n_urlkey":"373931","n_parent":"233335","n_path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/48\/layered-world","n_slug":"layered-world","n_type":"item","n_subtype":"game","n_subsubtype":"compo","n_author":"2975","n_created":"1619367028","n_modified":"1777482256","n_version":"779017","n_status":"WAYBACK"},"node":{"_collation":{"body_sanitizer":"TextUtils::SanitizeHTML via existing importer","event":"LD48","removed_author":false},"_superparent":9,"_trust":4,"author":2975,"body":"![photo_2021-04-25_23-04-52.jpg](\/\/\/raw\/f9b\/z\/3c1b9.jpg)\n\nA big trouble have happened in Onion Kingdom.
